Boot livecd ISO from HDD

With grub2 you can easily boot livecd image from hard drive.
General guide
This is general example. I will add settings for different livecd's later.
1. Copy the iso image to root folder for simplicity :
cp /home/user/downloads/systemrescuecd.iso /src.iso
2. Reboot and when grub2 loads press 'c' for console. Use following commands (tab autocompletion is your friend) :
loopback loop (hd0,2)/src.iso linux (loop)/boot/vmlinuz initrd (loop)/boot/initrd.lz boot
